Rising Hegemon
You may have already seen this...Ohio teabaggers show kindness and affection toward an individual with parkinson's disease, obviously influenced by noted humanitarian Rush Limbaugh:
To be sure, the people mocking the counter-protester come across as louts. But their behavior doesn't exactly seem to be out of bounds by the standards of protest and counterprotesters...No matter how frail his condition, could the fellow on the ground possibly have been seriously endangered by having two bills hurled his way?
I'd certainly be willing to take such harsh treatment from the nice folks at Progress Ohio.
Yes, mocked, abused and patronized for a serious disability or illness is the price you pay for not being "put down" or something in Megan's libertarian paradise. Awesome.
Megan is willing to have people throw money at her in Columbus, Ohio? She could likely find the perpetrators of this abuse here -- so have at it McArdle..

And McCurdle gives change, too. It's the Objectivist way.
Coming soon: McArdle promotes Soylent Green as the solution to all our health care problems.
Is she going to Ohio? Then I suggest the folks go out to their local cow pastures and "get some green" to throw at McArdle... would make a much better point than throwing money her way.
sadly, republikkklans are not stuck regularly with health problems.
Defending the indefensible. They can rationalize anything. Objectivist my ass.
Sort of missing in McGargle's equation is: would she move to Ohio and come down with Parkinson's?
She sort of forgets that last bit, doesn't she?
feel the compassion.
